How to Upgrade

This instructions are for those who use our new Docker based instance. If you use our older instances (or used the old bootstrap script), check the legacy guide.

It’s recommended to upgrade your Redash instance, once there is a new release, to benefit from new features and bug fixes. These instructions assume you used our images to setup Redash, but even if you haven’t they provide enough information to apply it to your setup.

Upgrade Process

Make sure to backup your data. You only need to backup Redash’s PostgreSQL database (the database Redash stores metadata in, not the ones you might be querying) as the data in Redis is transient.

Change directory to /opt/redash.

Update /opt/redash/docker-compose.yml Redash image reference to the one you want to upgrade to.
